Oooo! post a pic when its done! :D u running a controller aswell ?

nup no need for controller . .

Defi Racer .

i would upload a pic now, but for some stupid reason its only giving me a 2mb upload size. its normally 8mb !

Either use Infranview to change the files size (it is free) or upload it to photobucket of something similar :P

hey hey 8mp limit is back !

here it is mounted, bracket is under the dash matt, with to slight slits to let the mounting point to the cup through. double sided tape underneath

regular workshop is full so its not wired up yet

Looks good TJ. :)

Especially with the mat hiding the bracket.

when you guys put the gauge in car, where do u guys get the power from? if the light of guage will be on when you turn on the head light

take the light power off your cigarette lighter. It has to be useful for something. LOL

currently got oil temp, oil pressure and water temp in Saber S2 for the girl's car. oil temp + pressure in the glove box, water and boost to go into the ash tray spot (all 60mm).

the series 2's scream at you when you go past a defined limit, hence why 2 of them are mostly out of sight.

will post pics when they're all in. still trying to get a suitable boost gauge.

BTW, did anyone try to put the GTR 3 guages cluster on their car, hard work? my one is series 1, so it got no guage in it at all and i like the GTR set

I've got my setup like Nick's (Goldzilla) but just flipped around (I've got my 3x Autogauge gauges on the bottom and my head unit on top)...I'm thinking of changing it to like Nick's setup...

Also although off topic....you guys got any ideas where to mount the the hand controller from the Blitz Spec-R boost controller. I've currently got it on my vent (used a clip from an old ambi-pur car air freshener) for whent he cops pull up, you can easly take it off and put it away but I would like to use my vent...any ideas

I'll take a photo of how its currently setup

I'll probably be swapping my air-con and stereo when I eventually (if ever) get around to changing my head unit - I'd like to install a single-DIN DVD unit, but seeing as I need room for the screen to swing out I might put it in the top slot and the air-con controls on the bottom (if it can be done). The gauges will most likely stay in the middle slot.

As for my boost controller, I've removed my ash-tray (I've never smoked, and don't allow others to smoke in my car) and used that spot to hold my Defi gauge controller and the GReddy EBC. This shot only shows the Defi controller installed, but I had to cut the back out of the ash-tray holder to get the gauge controller to fit (and run the wires, of course), and the EBC now sits on top of that. Oh, and I can still use the cup holders comfortably!

    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
    • Was that Australia Delivered Duncan? Does it have siren etc?   I used to have remote start on an old 32 two decades ago, it was a cool feature. I used to wake up early in winter for work. Start it and by the time i was out the door a few minutes later the engine was warmed up and the heaters had the car toasty. It was great.    I don’t mine the ambience lighting.  I drive a western star and it has footwell lights and ambient lighting and it’s great! From the pics of seen of them installed in a skyline I think it’s a nice touch
